A Seal
Within a Seal
An inventor has created a wonderful package that preserves the
freshness and crispness of crackers, bfscuit and wafers.
TKe outside of the package is made of card board, scientifically
treated; the inside is a lining of specially prepared paper. THis preserves
the daintiness and delicacy of the baker's best creations.
TEe outside and the inside are so formed that one becomes a part
of the other; forming the famous "In-er-seal Patent Package" a pack
age that is air tight, dust tight, moisture tight the only package known
that actually carries the goodness of its contents from the oven to the
table. It can be distinguished by 'ii' trade mark design on the ends.
